Robotics employed to solve global challenges
Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis was given a tour of the FIRST Global Challenge student robotics competition in southern Athens on Saturday.
Athens hosted the prestigious event between Thursday and Sunday, gathering students from over 190 countries. The event aims to inspire and promote engagement in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) among young innovators.
This year’s challenge was “Feeding the Future,” with teams tasked with designing and building a robot for a simulated scenario in which they must sustainably manage water, energy and food resources.
